Of niche interest, I know, but: if you’ve got the TomTom car kit for an iPhone 3G or 3GS, you’ll know that it doesn’t work properly with the iPhone 4’s flat back. If you don’t have, or if you’ve lost, the official adapter, sticking a £1 coin behind the bottom of the phone works perfectly.

My name’s Carrie, and I live in Glasgow. I’m a writer, a broadcaster and a musician.

When I’ve got my writing hat on I write magazine features, tutorials, columns and buying guides; when I’m doing commercial copywriting I craft compelling copy for micro-businesses and multinationals for products ranging from spirits to speakers. I’ve written thirteen books, ghostwritten two more and co-wrote another seven, and I also co-wrote a Radio 2 documentary series. I love radio, and you’ll often hear me mouthing off on BBC Radio Scotland.

I make music in a band called HAVR, and you can stream or download our records from your favourite music store.
